2011 02 27—Mini Blogs From Several Days by Aleksa

Via Brother (Tomas) Report on Facebook

2/21/11--Brother Report: This is from Aleksa: “Very special thanks to friends and family for all the texts today! Total morale boost while trying to deal with these ridiculous sores! Love you all!”

2/23/11—Brother Report: Aleksa has been rocking the Captain Underpants look for over a month now.  And she wants everyone to keep texting her!  “Everyday (sic) the messages are like Christmas!”

2/24/11—Brother Report: Aleksa says unto me: “Enjoying possibly one of the only times in my life where I’ll see so many stars so far away from any light.  So many that the Milky Way blends in! Things like this make all the hard parts worth it.  Wish everyone back home could be here to see what a truly amazing world we live in J. Song of the night:Find Yourself”

2/25/11—Brother Report: Aleksa has decided to name her bum sore, Petunia.  Petunia apparently going to be partying like a rock star for the next 5 to 6 days.  The sheepskin butt pad also went overboard. “Fail.”

2/17/11—Brother Report: “The water is warmer, the dorados are friendlier, and the dolphins are back! Less than 350 miles to go!  PS: Excited to  come home!” 9 days until return to USA.

2011 02 08 Hallin Marine and Sara G Arrive in Barbados



Big Blue would like give 3 cheers for Hallin Marine who completed their Atlantic Crossing in Record Time.  And 3 more cheers for Sara G who completed their Atlantic Crossing about 15 hours after Hallin Marine and broke Hallin' Marine's record.

Sara G is the new World Record Holder for the E-W Atlantic Ocean Crossing!

Thanks to the Ocean Rowing Society for their fabulous coverage.  ORS has a wealth of information on their site.  They have webcam from Port St Charles Marina, Barbados linked to their site.  You can see both Sara G and Hallin Marine boats at the dock.  It looks like a wonderful facility.  I can't wait to watch our own Big Blue come in about 3 weeks from now.
